What did the American government do with the Native American populations after the army conquered them?

The Native Americans tried to defend their territory, but were not strong enough to protect themselves and their homes. They were either killed during the Indian Wars or moved to Indian Reservations. Even today many Native Americans still live on these Indian Reservations. The movement West displaced many Native Americans from their native homes. They were moved to Reservations that were often a long way from their native land. Not long after Congress herded the Native Americans onto Reservations, Congress enacted The Dawes Severalty Act (February 8, 1887) that deprived them of their legal status.


Is there any native Americans in Hawaii?

When Hawaii became one of the United States of America in 1959 its aboriginal people (the Polynesian Hawaiians) all became "native Americans" in the same sense that all the native peoples of Ohio are native Americans.The Polynesian Hawaiians are not in any way related to the natives of the Continental USA, but their status is exactly the same; this is one of the main reasons why the term "native American" is in fact meaningless, since it applies to more than one kind of indigenous population. The term AmerIndian or American Indian is much more specific, since it does not include the Polynesian Hawaiians.

What status did Native Americans have in the US in the 19th century?

In the 19th century, Native Americans were often considered sovereign nations but were subjected to increasing encroachment on their lands by European settlers and the U.S. government. Many tribes faced forced relocation through policies like the Indian Removal Act of 1830, leading to events such as the Trail of Tears. Their rights were systematically undermined, and they were frequently treated as wards of the state, with limited legal recognition or protection. Overall, this period marked significant loss of land, culture, and autonomy for Native American communities.
